Veterans Day Activities

Tomorrow is Veterans Day.

I think that it is very important to teach our kids about the men and women who have daily sacrificed their lives in order for us to live ours.

To help you with this I have gathered what I consider to be some of the greatest free internet resources available.

The United States Department of Veterans Affairs has a Veterans Day Teachers resource guide that is full of activities for teaching children the history of the day. It also has lots of other valuable ideas and an activity book for kids.

Enchanted Learning has a ton of Veterans Day activities.

This is a good activity for older high school aged children.
